Light Up the Sky by Moss Hart

University Theater presents "Light Up the Sky" by Moss Hart. The play takes place in the hotel room of Miss Livingston prior to the opening of a new play and follows a truck-driver-turned-playwright watching his first play being produced in Boston. This backstage comedy features the grandly temperamental leading lady- her sarcastic, gin rummy playing mother- the flamboyant director- the lowbrow producer- and his ice-skating, wisecracking wife. The opening night seems to go awry and the producer, cast, etc, believe it is a flop and turn against themselves, the producer and the author. However, when it turns out that the reviews are favorable, the tables are turned.
